10 Fastest Cars For The Money

There's a lot to be said for being able to buy the latest and greatest in supercar technology, but for many of us, that's little more than a dream. If you're looking for a whole lot of speed for not much money, however, you'll be surprised just how much you can get. This list brings you 10 of the fastest, most engaging cars you can buy without breaking the bank, in no particular order, based on horsepower, 0-60 mph times, and manufacturer retail prices. We're not cheaping out here, though. If it's not something we'd like to own, it won't make our list--no matter how little it costs.

 

Subaru quotes magazine tests for its 2011 Impreza WRX at 4.7 seconds to 60 mph, and with 265 horsepower on tap in stock form, a new body style borrowed from the hotter STI version, and several other revisions for the new model year, the WRX's $25,495 starting price makes this one of the best performance-per-dollar deals available anywhere--and that's before you make a few relatively inexpensive aftermarket modifications to unleash its true potential.

 

Zero to 60 times of just four seconds flat and 436 horsepower put the 2011 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe at the front of this pack, but its $49,045 starting price is also at the high end of affordable. It's a fair trade-off, however, as it'll cost a lot more money to even approach the outright pace and capability of the Corvette just about anywhere else.

 

If you don't need all-wheel drive and don't feel a sporty car should be rear-wheel drive, the 2011 Mazdaspeed3 is a great choice. Just two horsepower behind the Subaru WRX at 263 horsepower, with 0-60 mph times just a beat slower at 6.1 seconds, the $23,700 price of entry is very attractive--and so is the car, if you can get over the smiley front end that came with the 2010 redesign.

 

No list of wallet-friendly fun-to-drive cars would be complete without the Volkswagen GTI , and it ears a spot on ours for its 201-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder and 6.6-second 0-60 mph time. It's one of the slowest of this group, though, and at $23,695 to start, it's not the best bang-for-the-buck option either--but there's something about the GTI that makes it greater than the sum of its parts, despite being largely unchanged from the 2010 model pictured. If you're looking for a fun, quick hatch, consider the GTI.

 

Mercedes-Benz's 2012 C350 sedan is not just a knockout in the looks department--its 268-horsepower V-6 engine and 6.1-second 0-60 mph times are respectable as well. Start at $39,990, it's among the more expensive on this list, but it offers an attractive combination image and performance you won't find elsewhere.
